Wait, 'cows.' That's some weird Gamespot lingo, innit?

Why the hell are you bringing that here?

So you used to go to gamespot and post crap like this just to get people mad even though you don't even agree with yourself...wha?

Join a gym, do something productive in your free time.

And yes, fall from grace, its evident because the best game of this gen just launched on PS3 and it sold 1mil plus WW on the first day and sold out all bundled systems...

Given how dominant Sony was last gen, and how late the PS3 came to the market - this reaction from Sony fans was sort of inevitable.

With the PS3 "slowing" building momentum, it seems likely that some day this generation the PS3 will dominate - its just hard to predict exactly when that is. Its quite excusable for people back in early '07 to think domination would occur early '08 - just as people are now predicting domination to occur sometime in '09.

Its pretty amusing watching the market work at the moment - Wii is obviously dominating, but instead of the 360 openly competing vrs the Wii - its primary role seems to be holding the PS3 back (taking exclusives, etc). I'm sure its all part of MS's big strategy...

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm, well compared to last year the PS3 has been doing incredible.... and it is certainly doing quite well, even if not to wii or PS2 levels but outselling M$ 2:1 on average in Europe is certainly impressive. MGS 4 is what the fanboys have all been waiting for, and it has arrived and delivered
